Help! First Quilt Ever! Conclusion.
 

Hey! At the start of January I posed a thread asking for advice on making a quilt. Here are the threads:

and

This evening I finished up my quilt and wanted to post pictures and let you know some of my thoughts on the whole experience.

Many people told me the One block wonder quilt would be too hard and that they had a OBW on their list but have been to intimidated to try it. My advice: GO DO IT. It's not that bad, and any imperfections are hidden by the busy quilt anyway. Its a super fun quilt to make and I really recommend it.

It took me about 40 hours to make, but that does not include time spend looking up techniques or watching tutorials.

Overall it was a great experience and I am glad I learned how to quilt. I will definitely do more in the future.

Anyways, here is my quilt. Thanks for all the support.

Cheers.

Beautiful. Looks like things in outer space. I love it. I feel that when you went for it you nailed it. Love the way it's quilted. BrendaK

You did a wonderful job on this quilt, from the piecing to the quilting itself. I think you are a born natural at quilting.

It turned out great - good job!

Well this may be your 1st, but I'm sure not your last! So, you didn't just take up sewing? Right? It does look like outer space. Beautiful job.

Love your quilt. It does have a starry look to it. Very cool. Love the quilting as well. You made a terrific quilt.

Very pretty!

Great job! Love the colors as well.

Very nice and I like the quilting!

Great job all the way around. I'm a believer in doing something you like to get started with a new project. Just jump in there and you'll figure it out. That plan obviously worked for you!
